You need to draw extremely strict lines on the info that a Medium can get, regardless of alignment.
I think something like Dorian Grey’s vague hints about the game would be useful, where you throw the information through a lossy filter so that the information becomes useful rather than just being useful from the get-go.

Was referring to faction kills at night for the first one.
By “dummy targets”, I mean “someone whose death won’t necessarily benefit your team” because them being confirmed town and being able to speak and vote the next day means that if you target someone dangerous on an Odd-Cycle, they’ll have time and town confirmation to really throw a punch.

Town’s executions aren’t really affected by this system all that much?
Like, all it does is mean that you hit XeLo much faster. You’re never really voting someone out solely to avoid them speaking or voting; those come as part of voting someone because you think they’re mafia.

…I think, I can come up with a couple of ways.

Oh. Yeah, that’s basically always the case.
Hm… IDK, the logic is half-there half-not.
Yes, Mafia ought to pay attention to who they kill at Odd Nights, but not because of the reason you stated.
Dying at Odd Nights almost-always confirms you as Town, so while there is an argument to not go after “someone dangerous” (because their words become important during their final day), I think it is exactly those “dangerous people” who ought to be removed ASAP.
Because I perceive “danger” as “basically confirmed town” or “part of towncore”; if someone already has that position, then them getting confirmed wouldn’t change a lot IMO.

No, wait. That conversation’s context is Medium.
I was thinking of how to complicate BotF-in-FM.

i think the mechanic is probably better in a setup where there’s lots of extra kp running around

But multiple KPs means less roles get to shine. (Don’t get me started with HP or multiple lives. I tried it out and I still hate balancing the numbers.)
If I treat the entire macro-mechanic as odd-night poison instead of delayed death, then I could add fake poison into the mix. This way removes the “certainty” that whoever was attacked at Odd Nights are town-aligned.

the nfl is like. the least forgiving league when it comes to firing people and moving on from players and stuff like that. better coaches have been fired for less. i will never understand why the browns decided to keep him after 1-15, let alone after he went 0-16 the next season
it also speaks a lot that the jets are already willing to move on from aaron rodgers, despite him being better than deshaun and them giving up a ton to get him, because they realize he’s not gonna get them over the hump. and this is an organization run by a guy who nixed a trade because of a madden score

one of the funniest pieces of sports trivia to me is that jonah hill’s character from moneyball. this guy. if you’ve ever watched the movie or are familiar with “his defect is” sports memes you know exactly who i’m talking about.
is largely based on paul depodesta. who then went to the browns and was instrumental in getting them to acquire deshaun watson
